The Australian dollar slid lower against its U.S. counterpart on Thursday, after the release of mixed data from Australia, while the New Zealand dollar held steady as investors eyed the release of U.S. employment data later in the day.

The New Zealand dollar managed to retreat from its two-month lows seen in the previous session, broadly supported by upbeat trade data. The US session is now in focus with several speeches from Fed officials due.
